Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (12-inch size) Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh dill
- 4 ounces Smoked salmon
- 2 tablespoons Capers
- 0.25 thinly sliced Red onion
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 cup Arugula
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon, freshly ground Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
Brush the dough with olive oil, ensuring an even coating across the surface.
Carefully transfer the dough (on the parchment paper) to the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy.
While the crust bakes, prepare the topping by mixing the cream cheese with 1 tablespoon of chopped dill, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Once the pizza crust is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.
Spread the flavored cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Arrange the smoked salmon slices over the cream cheese layer, followed by the capers, red onion slices, and arugula.
Sprinkle the remaining chopped dill over the top as a garnish.
Slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy your gourmet smoked salmon pizza!
